we ought to relie on government to take care of us but that is a very different message from the one john f kennedy made when he was inaugurated. >> to all my fellow americans ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for our country. >> my fellow citizens of the world, ask not what america will do for you, but what, together we can do for the freedom of man. >> you know when i hear that wonderful quote by president kennedy, i heard it all my life. i don't hear a democrat. he was a democrat. but i hear an american. i hear an american president who inspired my generation but he inspired to us believe that we couldn't expect the government to simply give us things. to make it easy for us. he challenged to us join the peace corps. he challenged us not to see what government could do for us, but what we can do to make america a better and a brighter place for the generations who would come, america's strength has been not so much from what people have done for us, but what, rather, we have done for the next generation. i hope we'll take that to heart. from new york, good n
